A SEA OF ICE.
Fort Pierre, •;n the Upper Missouri,
(i it shed Out of Existence by an ice
Flood in Uic Blver.
Courier-J ournal.
The unusual winter weather has r e
suited in terrible floods in this region
as the snow melts. Winter beginning
60 early anti suddenly, caught several
! steamers in mid-stream between Yauk
iOU aud Benton, whict have been t;o
yon ia ail winter, their loads being
taken oil by teams. Indians and old
seitlois predicted terrible Hoods in the
spring, but tho Yellowstone rise came
and weat with no damage, and then
tho Tongue river broke up, which
drowrided a few Indians and ponies but
nuado no impression upon the .Missouri.
However, on March k’B.the Missouri Pe¬
nan to rise aud people in Fort Fierro
looked to the time when they must
move from the bottom lands quickly,
but on this side no preparations were
made. The water came higher bear¬
ing ice throo feet thick. The weather,
for a few days preceding March 2li, was
very warm, molting snow rapid!), but
seeming to have no effect upon the ice.
During tbe fftith a fresh, warm wind
from the Southwest blew all day long
up stream, at this point, and the gate
tresbened at night. About midnight
tbe ice broke up and began to run out.
On the evening of tlie 27th the river
presented a grand sp •ctacle of power
and terror as it rolled along, bringing
em rmous blocks of ice. There came
suddenly a perceptible check to its mo¬
tion, and simultaneously a sudden rise
of water, amounting to as much as four
feet in ten miuutes. This caused
A SUDDEN STAMPEDE
from the lower portion of Fort Pierre.
A pauic seized upon Pierre, for with
sudden jerk the level of the river came
! up to the level of the streets. Then
there was a rushing to and fro, with
1 loud calls for help. Teams wore in
great demand; household goods were
hastily thrown into passing vehicles,
and ail the town were ia motion toward
j the bluff’. The water was soon three
feet deep, boats took the place of teams
1 and by 3 o’clock the water was up to
j rbe floors of all the houses. From tho
| first tbe ice had remained stationary
iu tho channel, gorged against tho is¬
! land, just below; one could see the icy
waJle s earthy gaining in height at the
upper point of the island, and as
steadily the surface of the river rising,
) mob by iocb, and then it gamed con
: tiuualiy. From secoud story windows
wo co..id see houses iu Fort Pierre be¬
ing bn aled about, crushed or turned
1 over, and also people putting up tents
j and making an kinds of camps upon
tho clay hills, while their property
' and
